Week 131 – September 14th – Fraud

I was sitting at the table and my phone pinged. It was an unusual phone number for a text message, so I blocked the number as the text was a bit suspicious.

Then my phone pinged again and this was from Nat West, saying you will receive a text about activity on my credit card.

Looked at the previous text that I blocked and could see a strange entry.

So I replied and then contacted Nat West.

I was very impressed as this was for a small amount but they still blocked it

From speaking with the Nat West staff it was for some insurance setup, though the company didn’t exist.

The only place I think they could have got my details from, was I had a failed online order the previous weekend.

Very impressed.
